That's what we thought in the beginning...4 years, 8 months and 28 days later, we finally got our BFP. Alexis Marie was born April 10, 2009 at 36w2d. We are now trying to find our way as parents of our miracle toddler.

28 weeks

I'm so sleepy. I was unable to sleep well last night, having woke up at 1:30 to pee, then couldn't get back to sleep until after 3am.

I feel restless...which is why I couldn't sleep. I just couldn't lie still. Instead of RLS, I had Restless Whole Body Syndrome

I'm working from home again today. Because of aforementioned lack of sleep.

Baby girl slept well last night as she's active this morning.

We go in for our 4D ultrasound on Sunday...so excited to see her again, this time for an extended period!

Bending over is beginning to be difficult. The yard has melted so the dogs have muddy paws when they come in. Bending down to clean them was next to impossible. I had to sit on the floor with them.

My balance is also being effected. I tend to feel "lopsided" most times, and have lost my footing on more than one occasion.

My mind is also not "here" anymore. I can't remember things, have to write everything down and just can't concentrate or focus on one task for any period of time (with the exception of my cross stitch blankie for Baby Girl). This makes working very hard as my sales people rely on me to be the rememberer, the one who knows all the gritty details.

I am so there with you on the sleep thing. I can fall asleep initially, but after that first bathroom break, it is RWBS for me too! UGH - and bending over? yeah right. I have to tie my shoes with my leg crossed over my other!The JOYS of being with child!

About Me

I'm a 37 year old mom of my 4 year old miracle child. Conceived via IVF #2...she was the only embryo we had to transfer. We've since had IVF#3 result in a miscarriage and IVF#4 result in no embryos. I'm trying to accept not having any more kids, while making the most of the one who is here.
